ARI Driver Excellence®

The innovative workplace driver safety and risk management program.

A Proven Approach

If you operate a fleet of vehicles, or rely on employees to operate vehicles for your business, you know that crashes and accidents can happen. When they do, not only are your employees at risk for injury, but your organization is at risk for out-of-pocket costs and lost productivity – not to mention the potential for significant liability and damage to the organization’s reputation. Our innovative workplace driver education and safety program is proven to reduce accident rates, risk and associated costs.

ARI Driver Excellence® is an advanced suite of services that focuses on three key areas

Identifying at-risk drivers before accidents occur;

Real-time technology to monitor driver behavior on an ongoing basis; and

Services

Since the best way to deal with crashes is to avoid them altogether, our Driver Skills Assessment evaluates each driver’s strengths and weaknesses using innovative 3D online training modules that simulate real-world driving situations for cars as well as light- and medium-duty trucks. Upon completion of the evaluation, drivers are placed in a risk level category, given an overall score and assessed in key skill categories. It’s an ideal tool to identify potential problem drivers during the hiring process. It also allows you to evaluate existing drivers in specific categories and assign targeted online training for those who need improvement.

ARI’s Online Driver Training Modules:

Whether you have drivers you’ve identified from our Driver Skills Assessment that need targeted learning, new drivers that need training on the basics, or just want to offer refresher courses to your existing drivers, ARI’s online safety training programs ensure your fleet drivers know how to tackle a variety of situations in an assortment of vehicle types. Our program:

Motor Vehicle Records (MVRs) are one of the most basic ways a fleet can track driver performance and flag high-risk drivers. ARI’s program allows a fleet to develop a program that fits their needs, including the development of a customizable scoring system, regularly scheduled or ad hoc assessments, and automatic targeted training based on the results.

But there’s more to managing driver safety than just MVRs. ARI’s comprehensive program can also incorporate telematics data to increase driver safety, compliance and efficiency. Monitor driver behavior to see if your drivers are speeding, accelerating rapidly, making sharp turns, making hard stops or even using their seat belt regularly.

ARI’s in-house professionals minimize repair costs and maximize subrogation collections to get vehicles back to pre-accident condition as soon as possible. ARI helps keep the disruptions from crashes to a minimum, and can serve as a first notice of loss (FNOL) for your self-insured fleet. Partnering with ARI:
